2025 Camp Series

Meet Kelly, ice cream maker at Sparrow and Piper Frozen Treats, in Elphinstone. She features local and foraged ingredients in her nut-free frozen treats, which can be found at several farmers markets and farm stands across the Sunshine Coast. It brings her great joy to use ingredients from her farmer friends to produce both novel and nostalgic flavour combinations. Kelly offers ice cream science workshops to elementary school classes that walk students through the process from garden thorough to taste testing.

A workshop with Kelly will involve a foraging session on the farm and nearby Kinnikinnick Trails, hands on ice cream science, and happy campers! 

Harvest, cook, and eat with Chef Cheryl! Cheryl is a local chef and business owner, with a passion for teaching kids. We'll get inspired by our surroundings as we harvest fresh produce from the farm, gain basic food preparation and cooking skills, and make a delicious meal to enjoy together. Your kids will learn how to connect with food through their senses rather than a recipe.

We'll explore how much fun it can be to make and enjoy fresh food with friends!

Cambria is a full time artist living in Roberts Creek. She creates west coast inspired minimal art, distilling coastal scenes down to key elements that capture glimpses into the wonder of the Pacific Northwest. Cambria primarily works with ink and acrylic, and also enjoys blurring the line between 2D and 3D art by incorporating wooden sculptural elements into paintings.

In our Nature Painting workshop we will make paintbrushes and ink from natural materials, forage plants and practice dry rub art, and paint a nature scene with natural materials and inks.

Janna holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Concordia University’s Fibres and Material Practices program in Montreal Quebec, which is where she designed and taught her first 12-week elementary after-school textile art program in 2013. Since then she has been a textile art educator in a variety of settings for both kids and adults, teaching primarily weaving and natural dyeing techniques. In 2018 she launched her plant-dyed yarn, and textile supply business, Everlea Yarn, based out of Madeira Park. It is her great pleasure to be invited to share her knowledge of plant dyeing and weaving with your kids this summer at Heart and Sol Farm! 

Hilary is a pastry chef based in Halfmoon Bay on the Sunshine Coast. With a background in science and love for all things creative and hands on, baking and pastry was a natural fit from day one. Knowing the people and places that produce our food, and understanding where our ingredients come from is a fundamental part of cooking, and one of her favourite things! We will get hands on and creative (possibly a little dirty!) on the farm to bake up some tasty treats.

Marilyn is an Early Learning Facilitator on the Sunshine Coast. She is also an artist. Through this workshop, she is happy to be combining two of her greatest passions, children and pottery!

Marilyn has been working with children for almost as long as she has been doing pottery. In this workshop, we will be exploring and playing with clay, getting our hands dirty, and work on a project together that the kids will get to take home.

Heather is a Certified Canadian Counsellor and Registered Art Therapist with over 17 years of experience supporting children, youth, and families. She holds a Master’s in Creative Arts Therapies from Concordia University. Committed to fun, she brings authenticity, creativity, and play into her work. Her experience in group facilitation and creative expression helps foster a safe and enriching environment where children can explore and grow.

Join us for a fun and engaging workshop where kids will create their own thunder tubes, handmade instruments that produce deep, rumbling sounds like a thunderstorm!
